Boyd had his first birthday on the 5th... It was so much fun. And for the family members that couldn't make it these are for you... We miss you guys... But I warn you now there are a LOT of pictures!!!
For dinner We made Pizza from scratch... It was really fun watching all the kids make there own pizza. It turned out very yummy!!! We had tables set up with paper as the table cloth so the kids could color while the pizza baked.

After dinner we put the tables away and had a pinata...
Boyd went first and Chris helped him. His first time through he wasn't quite sure what to do, but once he watched his cousins take there turn his second time was much more enjoyable.
Chris made and painted the sword that we used. It looks pretty sweet especially with the inlaid fishing wobbler's that Chris' Grandfather, Boyd painted.
Boyd likes to hit things to make noise, so he loved the pinata.
Boyd's Black pirate hat became the pinata hat, all the boys wanted to wear it while they hit the pinata.

His cousins didn't mind helping him open the rest of the gifts while he played on his new drum.
Then it was time for CAKE!!!
Then it was time for CAKE!!!
we served the cake on a platter that Chris' father made 30 years ago, it has been used for years for all the Gunderson Cakes. Grandma Dorothy was sweet to let me keep that tradition going for Boyd.
He was so cute trying to blow out the candle...
The night was so busy we forgot to take a picture of the cake before I cut into it.
He was very neat and careful about it at first.
We gave him the option to use a fork.
We gave him the option to use a fork.
But that wasn't going fast enough for him, so it was back to using his hands.he later just picked up the whole piece and snarfed it down.
This would be his second piece(with a lot more frosting)...
